I think it's because they're in octaves and thus could be correct.
Could be correct? Why?
I don't think so.

(notice that the 4th note in the 1st bar is erroneously affected by the accidental on the preceding note - this is a long time quirk of NWC):
Yes, I know that, but, let me say, it's terrible for reading at first sight.
A Vivaldi manuscript I recently notated had those orrors... (not a mistyping :) )

Quote from: Warren Porter –
When changing a note to an octave chord, all attributes of the original note are applied to the created one.
Thanks, Warren, but usually this kind of problem arises because I'm copying from a "bugged" score.
Rarely I needed to add the octave to a long section.

By the way: for the same function there is also OctaveDoubling.nw.nwcut.lua, rg_AddOctave.php, rg_AddOctave.Lua.

Check this snippet that detects the error correctly (notice that the 4th note in the 1st bar is erroneously affected by the accidental on the preceding note - this is a long time quirk of NWC):

I don't know why Score Review didn't flag the octave, but you might want to use dooctave.js (nwc-scriptorium.org) in the future. When changing a note to an octave chord, all attributes of the original note are applied to the created one. Installation instructions are in the first few lines.

General Discussion / Re: Wrong verse highlighted after master repeat
Last post by Flurmy -
It's notorious that NWC after the D.C. or D.S. does not applies the master repeats.
Well, that's one of the two "standards" and has its reasons.  :)

What happens with the lyrics looks instead as a bug.
I'm not one of the experts mentioned by Mike but I can suggest a workaround as follows.

General Discussion / Re: Wrong verse highlighted after master repeat
Last post by Mike Shawaluk -
It would be hard to tell for sure without seeing the actual score, but I am betting that it has to do with either using or not using special bar lines at certain spots in your score. There are people here who are experts at getting repeats and flow control to do their bidding. I am not one of those people unfortunately. :)

General Discussion / Editor Display Question
Last post by fathafluff -
This forum has been so quiet and now two questions within an hour.
I am creating a score with multiple staves. I opened Staff Properties for each staff and added a Staff Name, Staff Label, and Abbreviated name for each staff. The editor screen indented and showed the name to the left of each staff. I hit something (not sure what) and the staff names have disappeared in the editor. They still show in the Print Preview. I've looked at, I think, all of the staff and editing screen menus and cannot find anything to restore them in the editor. I'm sure one of the experts knows exactly where to fix this.
